In state or OOS?


Both Virginia kids. One was a double legacy, if that matters.

At my daughter’s school, people have come off the wait list at NYU (multiple), Wisconsin, BU, Tulane and Northwestern. It has seemed like a ton of movement compared to what we expected (next to none).


When did the Northwestern waitlist movement happen? Before May 1 or after? And which school within Northwestern?


Sorry, I don’t know which school. This is a girl at my daughter’s school that she doesn’t know well. She had committed to Tufts and switched to Northwestern late last week.

Which top 25 schools? Any ivies except Cornell? TIA


I guess I didn’t mean just top 25 schools but a mix of good schools - Duke, Cornell, Michigan, UVA, Wisconsin, Case Western. I was expecting next to nothing.

The first 4 are t25

My son's friend got off the Wash U list a couple of days ago. Ironically, they had committed to Cornell but are now going to Wash U (no idea why.)


Ithaca isn’t for everyone.


Agree, but Ithaca to St. Louis seems like a lateral move. Wouldn't be me.

Barnard moved. You can decide for yourself whether that’s an Ivy/T25.

Only one of these is a T25 school. I agree there has been more movement than normal in the 25 to 75 range. I know of kids getting off Syracuse waitlist.
